The Wintering Sessions with Katherine May:
Episode 5: Jini Reddy on bereavement and finding a way through life

Jini Reddy, author of Wanderland, talks to Katherine May about a dark season in her life.

 
 

When Jini’s father died suddenly, she was still trying to work out what to do with her life. In this moving conversation, she talks about the times when she felt lost and unsure what to do next. But in time, she came to make her career as a writer.

I loved talking to Jini - she’s a true citizen of the world with roots in Canada, India and South Africa, and a sense of spirituality that emerges from having lived in a range of cultures. In this interview, we discuss the landscapes we love, our shared hatred of temping, and Jini’s ingenious places to retreat.

You can find Jini on Instagram or Twitter. Her book Wanderland is out now in hardback.
